This course is a study of Pervasive Computing (a.k.a. Ubiquitous Computing) System Design, which is the seamless integration of computing and communication technology into human-centered environments. A popular object-oriented internet programming language, its corresponding integrated development environment (IDE), and contemporary smart devices are used for prototyping most of the example systems. The core of the course material is organized using a contextual data access hierarchy perspective. Other pervasive computing topics covered include wearable computing, smart devices, intellegent environments, and the Internet of Things. Prerequisites: ECEN 621. (S)
